AGRICULTURE

AGRICULTURE

Sometimes a fresh perspective on a problem is exactly what’s needed to overcome an issue and lead the way for innovation. With so much time, effort and money put into creating the most effective overall seed treatment, a colorant shouldn’t be the weak link.

Our line of Akasprout agricultural colorants is an innovative solution developed by Aakash Chemicals to solve that problem.

Our Research and Development team used their experience in traditional coatings and film formation to design Akasprout with the sole purpose of protecting one of humanities most valuable commodities. Akasprout offers better seed protection, reduces dusting, improves flowability and plantability; all this with no effect on germination.

Traditional seed colorants leave microscopic agglomerates on the surface of the seed due to their incompatibility. Akasprout changes all of that.

Sometimes it’s the smallest changes in science that have the biggest positive impact on our world – and it’s the science behind Akasprout that has made that impact for our world.
